“I will serve the preparation of the Parliament for the next one that will respond to the people’s will on the June 25 elections. The next Parliament will be fruitful, constructive, and creative. From today we all understand that the fleeting life of the Parliament does not diminish the importance of your election. Thanks to everyone and good fight in the pre-election period”, concluded Mr. Tasoulas in his greeting.
